Deferred Compensation Arrangements Under Section 83 Of The Internal Revenue Code: Is Restricted Property Still A Viable Means Of Compensation?, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review

The Question Of Compensation: A Third World Perspective, Norman Girvan
The Question Of Compensation: A Third World Perspective, Norman Girvan
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The question of compensation for expropriated property takes us, in many respects, to the heart of the relationship between the developed capitalist countries and the Third World.
